(54) | Semiconductor devices with silicon-on-insulator structures |
(57) For fabricating a CMOS SOI structure on a silicon substrate (1) having a (110) plane
an insulating SiO₂ layer (2) is formed; an opening (2′) is formed in the SiO₂ layer
to expose a part of the substrate (1); a polycrystalline or amorphous silicon layer
(3) is deposited on the SiO₂ (2) and in the opening (2′); the deposited silicon layer
(3) is divided into islands (3A, 3B) so that a first island (3A) includes the opening
(2′) whilst a second island (3B) does not; a laser light (LB) is irradiated onto the
islands (3A, 3B) so as to melt the islands; when the laser light irradiation is discontinued
the melted islands are recrystallized so that the first island (3AR) forms a (110)
plane whilst the second island (3BR) forms a (100) plane; and on the first island
(3AR) a p-channel MOS FET is fabricated whilst on the second island (3BR) an n-channel
MOS FET is fabricated. |
